Investors Underground: Live Trading Chatroom

Category: Websites

Investors Underground is a premium real time chat centered financial environment designed to surround those currently in the markets whether new looking to start earning additional income, passive looking for a more active approach, or full time...

I was in the chatroom for 3 years. I learned how to read support and resistance well enough but overall it's not worth it.

The only good thing is that they keep it strictly to stock action. No opinions or side chatter. But the bad parts about the chat room outweighs the good parts especially at that price.

1. They say "we have a diverse group of people with different styles." When I was in the room, only Nate was announcing his entries and exits. All of the other mods were quiet or were doing it once a week. I know not to follow the stock picks blindly, but it would be good to review the mod's trades at the end of the day to try to learn what they see. So the diversity goes out the window. If you don't vibe with Nate's style of trading, you're out of luck.

2. Nate's style of trading. If you have a big enough account to "size in and size out," then this service is for you. He trades a lot of higher priced stocks (ie TWTR or JNUG) where you need to size in and out, but if you have a smaller account where commissions matter, then you can't really do that. He does webinars or EOD lessons but he cherry picks his setups. He shows his good trades and the setups for those trades. The problem is that the same setups work only 50/50 of the time. That's the point of scaling in and scaling out. When the setup goes your way, you scale in, when it goes against you, you scale out.

3. Watchlist. Nate's watch list from the previous night is so pointless. The only good thing is that you get some insight in how he thinks but you barely trade those stocks. He combines some stocks from his watch list and some stocks that are active in the morning then he trades completely different stocks. I was always prepared to trade the watchlist or the stocks he mentioned in the morning but then he announced an entry for a whole different stock. So you have to pull up the stock, analyze it and the opportunity is gone by then. So basically, you have run your own scanner in the morning.

4. Nate's indecision. When he enters a trade, he always starts warning "this could go lower" or "this could go higher. watch out" or "I want this to keep going against me so I can size in." The problem is that it creates doubt in everyone else's mind. Without conviction, you're trading suffers a lot. It would have been better if he would just say "im long here" and that's it. I hate to pick on Nate's trading but no other mod is announcing their entries or exits.

5. People in the chat. This in unavoidable. But a lot of people just announce "HOD" or "r/g" like no one else has eyeballs. The thing is if everyone is watching that stock, then you don't need to announce what it's doing We can see for ourselves.

6. Mods. What's the point of making people mods if they don't announce their trades? Just to mute people? He made Cam a mod just to be nice but he doesn't belong there. All of the other mods showed their p&l at some point to show that they are a profitable trader. That means they know what they are talking about and you should listen to them. Cam never showed his p&l and I don't think he's a profitable trader. So why does he give his inputs in webinars or even tell AT09_trader when to stop his webinar. That's like the towel boy telling the football team when to end practice or what plays they should practice.

7. Price. The price is too high for what you actually get. But I see that the demand from sheep is high, so why not do it.

8. "You can message any mod in the chat and he'll get back to you." Nope. I messaged Nate on "how did you know the stock will have follow trough." And got the answer "because it's in the watch list. It's obvious you didn't even looked at the watch list." I did look at the watch list but stocks don't go up just because it's on Nate's watchlist. I messaged other mods about other stocks but never got a reply. Only one to reply is Eric (elkwood) who is really nice.

Don't waste your money in this. You wont get the education you need.

Nate is good at what he does and is a great trader, He doesn't alert all his entry nor his exits. He sometimes will tell his plan which you don't want to just follow some ones trades any how but it would be nice to see what he was thinking when he says I have a big picture plan. The mods will MUTE you for anything. However if your part of the FRATERNITY and one of the boys you can pretty much say and speak of whatever you like. I hope Nate and Cam both read this. Little advice. Your running a business here. If you have rules for one make the rules for all. Don't let your Frat boys do what they want then mute anyone else that made a mistake and said something in chat that was not aloud . We are PAYING you $297 a month. You think you would give a warning 1st. And yes we all read the rules but some times specially when you r new you don't remember them all. Maybe you guys just have to much $$$ and don't really need new business. But hey if you buy the DVDs well now you get special attention. My advice is. If your new go to Tim Sykes chat. You 1st to learn the in and outs of trading. Then when you get better maybe and that's a big maybe go to Investors Underground. Unless Nate and his boys stop being such jerks to everyone but there own. Again Nate you are running a business. CUSTOMER SERVICE keep your paying customers happy douche.

I bought a 3 month membership along with the DVDs. The service is too expensive for me personally but I heard so much about the community I decided to give it a try. I will do a separate review on the DVDs but I made sure I watched both DVDs twice before I started the chat room service. Cam was very helpful and he gave me access to the DVDs first and then turn on the chat room service when I was ready. Personally I wasn't able to use the chat room and capitalize on the ideas in the chat. Nate will call out the stocks that he's watching but they maybe different than the stocks in the scan from the night before because things do change overnight. A lot of his trades right off the open are not something you can really copy. You don't want to do that anyway because you need to have your own ideas and trade the setups you're comfortable with. If you try to follow him especially during the open, you may have a hard time if you're a beginner. The other traders that you see on youtube like Tim G., and Derrick were not in the chat when I was subscribed to the service. The scans are ok but I think I can do the same on my own. The video lessons are basically Nate going over his trades but I didn't find them that useful from an educational perspective. The webinars are great and you can ask questions so that part is really good. If you are an experienced trader then I think you will find the chat room useful because there are really good traders there throwing out ideas and breaking news so it is definitely a good community to be a part of if you are already profitable. If you are a beginner then at perhaps watch the DVDs many times and internalize the setups before joining the chat room.

Investors Underground was one of the later chat rooms I joined, and it is definitely different than a lot of the other chat rooms I've been in. I enjoyed the other chat rooms as well, but IU matched my trading style the best.

I've seen some mixed reviews and I think that's because everyone has a) a different approach to trading and b) different expectations from a service.

Let me touch on the approach to trading first.

The momentum chat room is really fast paced. I could see how newer traders may be overwhelmed initially. There is a lot of jargon and terminology that you need to understand first. If I joined this room right when I started trading, I may have been a bit lost BUT I joined after I already had a good amount of experience.

I switched to IU because some of the other chat rooms would only have a few alerts each day and you would be twiddling your thumbs for the rest of the day. The moderators at IU are in and out of trades many times during the day. I like this because I am looking to trade actively, however if you are looking for more concise alerts, that's not really the point of this chat room. It's really more of a trader-filtered scanner. There isn't much "chatting" at all. It's all alerts.

I've noticed that a few reviewers were upset by the fact that they were muted in chat or other things of that nature, and while I don't know their personal scenarios, I actually think this strict system is beneficial. When I first joined, like many others, I wanted to share all of my ideas and ask questions. While this is allowed in some other chat rooms, it's not at IU. If you want to ask questions, just do it in private messages. That said, I was very impressed by the fact that Nate consistently responds to me about my specific trading questions - even during my first week.

I think that what some view as "strict" is actually for the greater good. Questions, irrelevant comments, an uneducated alerts decrease the quality of the chat room for ALL members. There are hundreds of members, so there is not room for noise.

My advice - don't go into IU acting as if you are owed anything. Go in ready to learn and listen to the traders there. I've learned more about trading in the past few months than I did for my first year.

Overall, I would DEFINITELY recommend IU to any trader who has some experience. If you are still 100% new, do some learning on your own first, but if you understand basic terminology & trading concepts, you will love it here!

Hey guys. Long story short I read the reviews & decided to go and try it for myself.

Some of the review are right on. I think a lot of the people on the site are pretty much B.S including Nate. Investor underground has great really time alters Nate & friends have build a nice set up that can help you momentum trade. But I don't think I'll keep my subscription. I do highly recommend you try for yourself. My results are mixed love the alters & news from monorators & friends. But don't like the B.S with Nate & friends

There's a lot of truth to reviews on the way some of these people are in a you can't but we can mentality . My suggestion is stocktwits.com it's free, more entertaining & wont block you out of chat is you not riding or agree with investor live & friends.

It seems like some of the folks are really nice (top traders). Some of the traders already have their group and it can be a little difficult to break into their group. The majority were friendly and willing to answer questions that you may ask. The chat, that is a place were you will not be able to post anything other than real time entry and exit. If you need to ask a question, use pm. As I said on title, this is good for a seasoned trader that needs a "live scan" tool. As far as the scans and alerts from Nate go, they seem to be okay, but you really have to decipher what the scan is saying, whether it is a long or a short. To their defense they have a page that talks about what they mean when they say certain words. Like I said before, not for new people. I'm not used to the restrictiveness of their chat and that made it difficult specially not knowing anyone and being new to the board. Normally in other chats you can ask a question and for an answer via pm, that makes it a little easier to meet folks as they answer your questions. In short, this board is not for me, I've been trading for a couple of years and have visited other chats and from those experiences I can say that this is a very restricted board, not for me. The expense is high and the stocks being traded are the same that you will find in other cheaper boards.

Seasoned traders, no newbies, make sure you learn lingo

In short, this board is not for me, I've been trading for a couple of years and have visited other chats and from those experiences I can say that this is a very restricted board, not for me. The expense is high and the stocks being traded are the same that you will find in other cheaper boards. I purchased a 3 month membership along with Tandem Trader for $1297, this is a discount package deal I was told. I was contacted about my Education rating on this review, to be fair I added a "check" to the education bar because of the time Nate takes on a weekly basis to review educational info about learnings from trades that happened the past week. This review does not include Tandem Trader, I believe I will write a separate review for that. I gave them the extra check because there is extra info for you to learn from, initially I just took the chat as consideration for the review, but that would not be fair since you have resources. The question below, "would you recommend to a friend?" the choices depend, if it's a friend that has been trading for a while and needs a good live scan tool and has time/likes to view educational webinars than YES I recommend. Otherwise, I've answered below.

When I first started trading about 2 years ago I didn't know what I was doing. I was your typical sheep sitting in an alert based chatroom trading randomly. I always saw Nate on twitter making some spot on calls day in and day out and expected him to be just like any other person on the internet. I was slowly losing money left and right but just chalked it up to me being a noob, but in reality I just really didn't know what I was doing. I wasn't even making any plans before a trade!

In the back of my mind I always wanted to join IU but didn't pull the trigger. Nate started posting screenshots of chat logs and the calls he was making and I was blown away. I knew if I REALLY wanted to succeed in trading I had to trade around the best and learn from the best. I finally decided to bite the bullet and get a 1 year subscription to IU.

Thinking back on it now I have no idea why I waited so long. IU changed my life drastically forever.

Chat is ALL business from 9am-4pm. No partying, no bs, just business. Nate is always up early and in chat around 7:30am. By 9am he lays out his plan and adjusts any plan he had on scan the night before. Nate is ALWAYS literally ALWAYS answering PM's. You can message him at any time in the day with educated questions.

Keep in mind IU is not an alert service. If you're looking for one you're in the wrong place. No txt messages or email alerts for trades.

When I first joined IU I sat and watched. I observed what other pro traders like Eric, Ozark and Derrick were doing and tried to learn from them. I never blindly followed, instead when they placed a trade I would write it down on a piece of paper and analyze it at the market close to try to understand what was going through their mind and what they saw on the chart. If I had any questions I could've easily PM'd them.

IU taught me how to be consistent and profitable. IU gave me the door to success, but it was still my job to learn and open that door myself.

The yearly subscription is the best bang for your buck. Can easily make it back in a trade or two.

The community is also a one of a kind. I've had tons of up days, but also some pretty bad down days from being stubborn. Lots of friends in chat have always been there at my highs and especially my lows to pick me up when I was down.

When you're surrounded by the best traders their success will rub off on you too if you pay enough attention and trade with a plan like everyone at IU does.

This review is my honest and scrutinized opinion.,unbiased .I was a member of IU for 2 months .I am trading about 2 years now .Cant say very successful But consistent .I have tried different newsletters - like Tim's Penny silver . i heard a lot about IU so thought to give a try .Then i joined and was there for 2 months .

First of all , $197 p/m for IU standard is pricey .Their aim to advertise to make this community for both new traders and experience traders .so most of the traders (newbie) who takes good amount of time to be make money ,$197 a month is definitely expensive for them also if you add software fees , L2 ,brokers fess etc.

Secondly there are no alert from nate and other moderators .I know alert service is not good to be blindly followed but it is definitely helpful to understand the trade plan to be educated and to support ( from a pro trader) your trade idea on a particular stock ( if you already have before alert)

It is for sure that IU is a great community for all pro traders But most of them (95 % ) do not participate any ideas ,discussion , watch list ,trade plan in the chatroom . Which is more annoying is that most of them do not response to you if you ask some trade related Q or any other kind of advise You feel like a dickhead and left alone! They are already successful so why they have to care about you !They will discussing ideas among good friends – Nate,modern rock ,d4ytrad3,elkwood etc. But i assumed that as it is a paid chatroom ( specially $197 pm ) so I expected more than nate's watchlist !

Thirdly you have to be very careful ( newbie ) when asking Q because IU love to Gag ppl .Most of the ppl in the chatroom do not ask nonsense questions but also for some funny reason IU moderator are very sensitive .It is rather a chatroom for elite pro traders with their alien discussion ( terms / phrase difficult to understand for new trader ) than a free discussion of trade plan which actually can be useful in a day trade making some real money than showing off who is more knowledgeable and smart !!!

Fourth Nate hardly trade stocks between $1 - $5 , Most of his trades based on over $10 – $100 ,which is not convenient for small accounts ( I think most of the start-up traders have small account )No one can grow a small account with a high price stock because most of your money involved in one high price stock trade !

Fifth Nate and other traders do not mention their entry exit , profit ,loss etc in the chatroom .So you are blindly following a GURU not knowing what is his activity .I think it is very important to get motivated if you know how is your Guru performing.

Overall it is a great community for Pro trader if you want to make friends , share trade ideas and praise among themselves But definitely confusing and not useful for New trader because I believe with learning curve someone need to make some money while trading otherwise it is like being smart ass with no real work.

I am sure Nate is a great person and trader I like him for his humble attitude But also he needs to understand to run a paid service ,services need to be actually there .That chat room need some changes like other available chartrooms - alert , trade plan ,low price stocks , giving priority to every paid members not only friends etc. Then I am sure it will the best chartrooms among others .

I hope Nate read this and do something about it .if changes comes I will be the first to join IU again .

After trying multiple trading services when I first got started, I finally stumbled across Investors Underground and I couldn't be more happy about it!

I tried quite a few services, and while none of them were bad, they didn't really align with my needs. I found others to be a bit slow and boring at times. Here are the things I like about Investors Underground:

1. It's HIGHLY Active - As someone who is by their computer at all times during market hours, I wanted to be surrounded by other people who were trading as actively as I intended to be. Now, I'm not a professional by any means, but I wasn't a big fan of other rooms where the "guru" placed a couple trades a day and sent out email alerts. The IU chat room has a ton of great alerts throughout the day and I really like having the option to trade all of these different stocks.

2. Broad range of stocks - When I first started trading, I found myself focusing on mostly OTC stocks. I was initially drawn to IU because they had an OTC room, which is where I would spend most of my time. Eventually, the OTC market slowed down so I found myself starting to mess around with NASDAQs. There is so much to learn from all of the traders in that room! Nate's watch lists consist of all different kinds of stocks. I don't trade all of them because I'm still more focused on lower priced stocks, but I like that there is a variety of options. I also like that there are multiple chat rooms (OTC, Swing, and momentum). For the most part, I am in the momentum room, but occassionally Ill focus more on swing trading if Im busy with other work. Michele runs the swing trading room and she is incredibly helpful as well!

3. Trade recaps - The video lessons help a lot. Not only do they help show you Nate's methodology in a more vivid format, but they also allow you to compare your trades to his and get some feedback on what you may have done right or wrong.

4. Great insights - Whenever I'm watching one of the "hot stocks" for the day, I always find myself checking in on chat to learn from others trading the same ticker. My goal isn't simply to copy these traders, but it's helpful to see how more experienced traders are handling a move. There is not just one "guru" mod in this room. There are plenty of successful traders who all have unique styles, so there is always something new to learn.

5. Willingness to help - Honestly, this one surprised me the most. I figured that with how many people there were in the room, it would be difficult to get a response from one of the moderators. During the first couple weeks of joining, I would occasionally PM Nate asking for his insight on my trading plans and he would always respond! That alone may have saved me a few hundred dollars! For the most part, I like to focus on improving my own trading and im not looking for someone to spoonfeed me trades, but it's nice to know there is a support system in place.

Overall, I would say that IU is the place to be if you are an aspiring trader who wants to figure things out on your own with available support when needed. I don't come into chat waiting for Nate to make trades that I can replicate. I focus on my own trading and go to chat for new ideas, extra insights, or when I have a specific question about a trade. IU is really more of an education resource/community for me.

I see a variety of different reviews here and I can only assume its because everyone has different expectations for the service. If you're looking to become a pro trader over night by piggybacking off of the trades of others, you're in the wrong place. If you understand that trading is a constant learning process, IU is the service to aid you on your journey.

Was a member for a month awhile back in January and had no success with the room. I assumed it was because I was too new and couldnt follow along very well. After being away for a few months I joined again but had the same experience. Was having a hard time following along, and most of the time nobody wants to help you. Most of the mods are complete jerks who wont answer your questions no matter what. (Not all, some of them are awesome) Nate isnt very helpful most of the time, but I understand he gets a lot of pms during the day on top of trading and is busy. Instead of answering your questions he usually tells you to get the dvds or wait for setups, even if that has little to no relevance to your question. It would be better if he just answered late rather than giving you an answer that doesnt help. It seems like there are only a handful of members consistently profiting while most fail. And because of how popular the room is, nobody wants to admit they arent profiting or they look bad for being the only person not doing well. I think what would make this service more worth while is if instead of having nate do video recaps, they should have the mods occasionally record a live trade and give some commentary on it. This way members could watch live trades like nates dvd, except from some other people. All in all not a bad room, but if you dont already know what youre doing, there is little educational value in the chat room. If you just want to chat with other traders, then sure its good.
